Thanjk you.
Paul.S
Unfortunately, he was back at it again this week. The show was not a repeat as they were discussing the possible "Sheik up" at Anfield among other more up to date topics. Once again he was going on about how if you are going to discuss our past that you have to include Heysel and Hillsborough. He stopped short of saying it but to me it once again implied that we were responsible for the tragedies. Nick Geber (his co-host and reds supporter) did take him to task a bit. What pisses me off is that Steve Cohen seems bemused by the response he ellicits everytime he brings it up.
Some fcukers will never learn, it seems.
When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him
This is and IS NOT an old story; Steven has been saying these things for years on their radio show (6pm GMT, live on the internet, listen for yourselves-- link to the show in the top right corner) and now he has said it LIVE on TV. He does it to promote controversy and be a ****, which he is. Nick, the Liverpool supporting co-presenter, does little to stand up for the badge; he lets him get away with it (sometimes, its better to let someone dig their own grave I guess). Steven has been using the tragedies of Hillsborough and Heysel as a joke on air for years; Anytime a Liverpool supporter reminds him that Chelsea have no history, he brings this up and says "There's your history!"... over and over and over, ad nauseum.
Fox Soccer Channel is the ONLY soccer channel available on Cable TV here in the USA, and there are NO presenters programs on the show except for Fox Football Fone-In (and FC Fox, which is geared to children); The rest of the programming comes straight from England or other nations. It is not 'conservative' at all-- they primarily just show matches and are our lifeline for the game here in the USA. Steven is from England, grew up in London and is a **** of the highest order. E-mails to him and to his show and to Fox should be sent; Its tiring and outrageous that he continues to alienate American supporters from the truth about the game and our club.

I lived in the States for a while and suffered through this dreadful ****e a few times. I find it hard to believe that anyone watches the show it such a pisspoor excuse for a chat show anyway. The two presenters were only chosen cos they look and sound a bit like Skinner and Baddiel. If I was still in DC I would now boycott it on principle, but I'm not, so I'll boycott it in spirit.
